Refusing to ascend at the beginning

Chapter 354 The Dust Settles
Su Han's physical condition stabilized, but his whole body was stained with a deep red, and he fell into a deep sleep.

Cheng Yingyue and the three of them all breathed a sigh of relief, and they were no longer as nervous as they were just a moment ago.

Only then did Guo Taigao find an opportunity to ask Cheng Yingyue carefully about what happened on the island.

After she spoke eloquently, Guo Taigao and Guo Taigao were amazed.

The life and death crisis she experienced was even worse than that of Su Han.

If she had been careless or if Su Xuan had not asked the real dragon to use the inner fire to save her, she would never have been able to escape from the desperate situation. At this time, she might have become the target of Ya Sui.

Guo Taigao talked about Su Han's current situation again, and Cheng Yingyue shook her head silently.

She didn't know when he would wake up, so she could only hope that her senior brother would soon suppress Yaizhen's inner fire and tame his bloodthirsty and aggressive nature, so that he would wake up naturally by then.

"While senior brother is sleeping, I will stay with him in the Northern Desert." Cheng Yingyue looked at Su Han and said.

"The real dragon..." Guo Taigao hesitated slightly.

Cheng Yingyue turned her right hand, and a piece of golden armor appeared in her palm. She looked at it with complicated eyes.

For it, her and her senior brother's lives hang by a thread.

"Don't worry, the dragon scale fragment has been obtained, and it will help us. Moreover, no one in the world understands Xinhuo better than it. With its help, senior brother may wake up sooner."

"But, Yaizhen is its descendant, and Xinhuo is a special existence of the true dragon clan. Will it help a foreigner suppress Xinhuo?"

"The true dragon's mind is unpredictable, and we can only try it once. Moreover, it promised that as long as we bring out the dragon scale fragments from the mirage realm, it will help us fight against 'them' again. If we can suppress the inner fire, senior brother's achievements will be certain It will be higher and have more power to deal with 'them'."

Guo Taigao and the other two nodded.

After a moment of silence, the Demon of Misunderstanding suddenly said: "Could it be that the real dragon was planning to help us from the beginning? When Xian Er met Lu Sen for the first time, it was the one who pointed out the matter of the real dragon bow, so that Xian Er could go smoothly. Break the black stone.

"There is also the matter of Yajue. This time it suddenly merged Yajue's island into the mirage realm, and at the same time made us search for dragon scale fragments all over the mirage realm. So, it was only a matter of time before we ran into Yajue.

"Let's not talk about whether it drives tigers and swallows wolves, but you and I both know that only Xian Er has enough cultivation to enter this island." He looked at Cheng Yingyue thoughtfully, "And you are the only one who carries it. Heartfire, only you can make the final counterattack in a desperate situation.

"The result is indeed the case. You got Yazhen's sword, got its inner fire, and saved Su Han."

After he finished speaking, Cheng Yingyue and Guo Taigao also fell into deep thought and felt that it made sense.

After a while, Cheng Yingyue stopped thinking about it, stood up, turned to look into the distance, and said, "It's time to let the matter settle. Please help me keep an eye on my senior brother."

After finishing speaking, she rose from the sky and slowly flew towards the crowd like wooden chickens outside the island.

……

Cheng Yingyue stopped not far from Zhou Xingyan, He Shi and others, squinting at them.

When her gaze passed over them, it was as if a knife blade was swiping across the back of their necks, making them feel chilled in their hearts.

All the important figures in the Immortal Sect, except for the two from the Duye Buddha Sect, were like lambs to be slaughtered, waiting for her butcher knife to fall.

Cheng Yingyue really wanted to kill them.

They all participated in the pursuit and interception of our side, how could we let them off lightly?
only……

She frowned.

During the three years of cultivating in the Northern Desert, she had many in-depth conversations with her senior brother.

She asked if she could just kill "their" minions if they encountered them.

After thinking for a long time, the senior brother told her that not every minion is a pure evil person, and there should be many people like Immortal Ling Heng.

They were forced to stand in that position, becoming the black stone platform and the accomplices of the demonic tide. They could not help themselves.

Of course, he was not excusing them. After all, whether active or passive, the countless blood on their hands was always difficult to wash away.

They can die, but not worthless.

Their guilt, their inner torture of themselves, may one day shine brightly in the future.

Furthermore, even if they kill these people at this time, "they" will just promote some new people to take their place, and the people who come back to power may have even worse temperaments.

Cheng Yingyue's heart echoed with her senior brother's words, and she squinted her eyes to look at the people in front of her.

The crowd was silent.

Although Zhou Xingyan and others are from the Qing Chi Sword Sect camp, they mostly follow Lu Sen's orders and have no idea about other things, so they have always been blinded.

Judging from his passive fight with Kuxu just now, he didn't completely think that Lu Sen's order was right, and was silently resisting in his own way.

He Shi had just inherited the position of the leader of the Wuyan Immortal Sect. He hadn't had time to do anything yet, and he didn't have much blood on his hands. For now, he could be considered a sinless person.

So, does he have to pay debts at this moment for things that he may do in the future but has not yet done?

Her head hurt, and she was troubled by this moral dilemma.

After thinking for a moment, she decided to deal with the person who made the simple decision first. She turned her attention to Immortal Tongyang, and her eyes turned cold.

"Do you have anything to say?" Cheng Yingyue said.

It's hard to say for others, but Immortal Tongyang was the one who captured his junior brother, and the rift between the two is certain.

Immortal Tongyang sighed, knowing that he could not avoid this butcher's knife.

His tense shoulders relaxed, and he said with a sense of relief and guilt: "After you rescue him, I hope you can convey my apology for me, and there will be nothing else."

After saying that, he closed his eyes and faced his impending death calmly.

He looked relaxed and seemingly relieved.

Cheng Yingyue was stunned.

If Immortal Tongyang resisted, she could directly kill him with a backhand, but his appearance made her hesitate. The same hesitation also appeared on He Shi just now.

These two people are directly connected to the black stone platform, and they most likely have the black stone that Lu Sen took out before.

She has already experienced the terrifying power of black stone.

Although she was not afraid with the real dragon bow in her hand, the two people in front of her had no intention of resisting, and they never thought of using black stones to deal with her.

If two black stones appeared, it would indeed take her a little effort. At least it would give them an opportunity to escape like Lu Sen did.

But they didn't.

Instead, he looked like he was accepting death calmly.

Cheng Yingyue looked at them in silence, her senior brother's words and their performance at the moment constantly emerging and entangled in her mind.

After a long time, she exhaled heavily.

Then she raised her hand and flicked her fingers, and she twisted and flicked out the ten silk threads.

The five tencels stretched straight as they flew away, as sharp as cold needles.

"Puff puff puff."

Five pieces of heavenly silk penetrated into the chests of the five members of the Immortal Sect, easily breaking through the defenses and nailing into their souls.

They immediately shook violently and spurted out a large mouthful of blood.

The two masters of the Du Ye Buddhist Sect were not harmed in any way.

"Lu Sen's death is my explanation for this matter. Today, for the sake of my senior brother, I will only give you a light punishment and spare your lives. Because...

"You will eventually face a choice in the future, and I also want to see what you will choose.

“Should we stand in front of justice, or continue to dance with darkness?

"I'm taking a gamble with senior brother today, I hope you won't disappoint us."

Zhou Xingyan and the others frowned, confused as to what she was talking about.

However, the expressions of He Shi and Immortal Tongyang changed, and they were secretly shocked.

They didn't know if Cheng Yingyue's words meant what they understood. If so, it meant that she knew about the black stone platform.

Similarly, Su Regret and others also knew about it.

At this moment, they suddenly remembered that Lu Sen had suddenly changed his attitude and insisted on killing Su Regret, which further proved their guess should be correct.

The black stone platform and "their" affairs were finally exposed to outsiders?

Immortal Tongyang didn't care about the injuries in his body, his eyes were lowered and shocked, and he thought to himself: "Is it possible that Junior Uncle Tianle already knew about this?"

He raised his head, looked directly at Cheng Yingyue and said, "Uncle Tianle..."

Cheng Yingyue's eyes flashed coldly, "Shut up, I haven't even settled this debt with you yet, how dare you tell me in front of me?"

If he hadn't felt guilty about capturing his junior brother, she would have killed him just now.

Immortal Tongyang was speechless. After a moment of silence, he said, "This matter is beyond my control."

"Get away as far as you want before I change my mind." Cheng Yingyue said in a cold tone.

The five members of the Immortal Sect looked at each other, and He Shi left first. Zhou Xingyan and the other three fell into the sea and flew towards the direction where Lu Sen was floating away. Immortal Tongyang paused for a moment and was about to leave, but a soft but firm voice spoke to him. Sounded from behind:
"Sect Master, I won't go back with you..."

Immortal Tongyang was stunned, and turned back to look at Chen Chuyao, who was protected by his spiritual energy.

After recent events, the last trace of childishness has faded from her face, replaced by a touch of maturity and assertiveness.

He looked at her with a complicated expression for a while, and finally sighed: "That's all, leave, leave, leave..."

He waved his hand to disperse Chen Chuyao's aura.

Before Immortal Tongyang turned around and left, he suddenly paused, then turned back to Cheng Yingyue and said, "He is imprisoned in the central area of ​​the Tianyuan Prison."

Cheng Yingyue raised her eyebrows, "We know."

Immortal Tongyang was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that it was someone with immortal marks in his mountain gate.

He nodded, did not dwell on the matter, and waved his hand to send out a gleam of light.

Cheng Yingyue reached out to catch it, opened her palm and saw a round white bead lying in the palm of her hand with a faint light.

She looked up inexplicably, with some doubts.

"With this thing, you can easily enter and exit the sect-protecting formation." Immortal Tongyang said softly, "...go and rescue him."

Cheng Yingyue was a little surprised. She looked at the white bead and put it away. She nodded and said, "After I leave the mirage realm, I will go to your mountain gate to 'pay my respects'."

"That's very good. Welcome." Immortal Tongyang cupped his hands, turned around and turned into a white rainbow to leave.

Cheng Yingyue looked at his leaving figure with a strange expression.

The conversation between the two just now was a bit strange no matter which angle you looked at it.

How could a leader of a sect not only not be angry but also express full welcome when he knew that outsiders were coming from his family's mountain gate to make a big fuss?He even wished she could come quickly.

She has never encountered such a strange thing in her more than 1000 years of practice.

Chen Chuyao also came over at this time. Cheng Yingyue turned around and prepared to go back to the island, but found that there were two figures beside her who had not left.

She stopped, bowed to Kuxu and Kuxu, and asked politely: "Two masters, we have made a note of your help today. Thank you very much."

"It's just a trivial matter, no need to worry about it." Ku Jing smiled and shook his head, but sighed, "It is said that the Silk-Tangled Heavenly Demon is the most outstanding demon cultivator in the past thousand years after the Wuji Heavenly Demon fell silent. Everyone in the world thinks that you kill people without blinking an eye. The devil, but I didn't expect to be so tolerant."

Cheng Yingyue shook her head and smiled: "Master, I have misunderstood, I have never been a generous person, before, they would have died under my Tensilk.

"It's just that senior brother said that even if they die at this time, they are just filling in some new puppets, treating the symptoms but not the root cause.

"Therefore, it is senior brother's intention to let them live this time to give them a chance to atone for their sins in the future."

Ku Jing nodded and asked: "Then, what if they still go to the dark when faced with the choice you mentioned?"

Cheng Yingyue said calmly: "My senior brother and I will personally take back the lives left for them today."

After hearing the words, Ku Jing put his hands together and recited a Buddhist name, but did not refute, nor did he say any pedantic words such as "God has the virtue of a good life" or "Put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately."

Kuxu then asked, "I wonder how Su Han is doing now?"

Chen Chuyao next to her suddenly showed concern.

Cheng Yingyue only briefly said that Su Han's life was safe, but didn't say much else.

Both Ku Jing and Ku Xu were relieved and said that Brother Abbot would be waiting for Su Han at the mountain gate, and then left.

Not long after Cheng Yingyue brought Chen Chuyao back to the island, she also left with Su Regret who was still asleep.

Calm returned here, and a mixed battle between several parties ended like this, with Lu Sen's life and death unknown - of course, according to Cheng Yingyue's words, he was certain to die.

In the next two days, some practitioners were attracted by the aftermath of the battle. They knew that a battle between the nine realms had occurred here, but they did not know the details.

Moreover, the island that had been in great danger before no longer made them feel frightened. They landed on the island one by one to surprise, but found nothing of value, only an empty island.

Two days later, a melodious dragon roar suddenly sounded in the ears of the practitioners in the mirage.

Immediately afterwards, there was a faint feeling of repulsion in this world, as if they were being squeezed out.

People who have been to Mirage before know that this is the precursor to Mirage closing.

As expected, the feeling of rejection became stronger and stronger, and soon it reached the point where everyone could not move forward and could only stop where they were.

Not long after, a ball of white light emerged from everyone's body, leading them upward into the sky.

Until they dripped down into the blue sky like rainwater, leaving waves of ripples before their figures disappeared.

Peace returned to Dragon Nest Mirage.

Only the many more lifeless corpses on the many islands prove that there are waves here again.

Meanwhile, the outside world.

In the sky of Fuyangping and other welcoming places, the illusory world hanging upside down like a mirage is gradually disappearing.

A series of figures emerged from the illusion, either with extreme excitement, or with various emotions such as fatigue and panic, and returned to the original world.
